Dogs can get Mastitis even if they are not lactating. Bacterial infection in the milk glands can also be caused by the presence of a tumor, infection in the blood stream, staph or other underlying causes. Mastitis can become septic very quickly I would see a vet to be certain.

There's those that just TALK about doin' it and those that just DO IT!

We have been to the vet and are on Clavamox and warm compresses. It did not feel like a tumor to the vet. Please keep your fingers crossed.

Good Mastitis cure is cabbage leaves. Put the cabbage leaves in the freezer for five to ten minutes, then and roll over them with a rolling pin on the counter so the juice will be able to escape. Wrap the cabbage leaves on the affected area with ace bandage, do not use vet wrap, use ace bandage. Do this three or four times per day for 30 min. Good luck.
